I am trying to find some latest update on "Boeing grants" (not volunteer hours) for FTC teams. We have a Boeing employee mentor in our team, who is relatively new to FIRST programs/grants.
Previous posts mentioned that -
* teams apply for the grants in around Oct.
* there're different application systems for current employees and for retirees
I see a Boeing grant link (below) - which lists $275 FTC grant for veteran teams, with June 30 as deadline. But the application looks more like for Boeing Retirees (filename, headline, former BEMSID field) though the desc inside mentions "Boeing employee/retiree".

* Has anyone (current employee) applied for this above grant, or is the application actually for Retirees?
* Was there a different grant/amount last year for "veteran FTC teams"?
* Are we expecting to see grants for teams in Sept/Oct this year also? Or, has the timing changed this year?
